Abstract: A high-voltage selecting circuit generates an output voltage with no voltage drop by means of an auxiliary NMOS transistor turning on the corresponding selecting PMOS transistor of the high-voltage selecting circuit when the voltage levels of a first input voltage and a second input voltage are equal. In addition, when one of the first input voltage and the second input voltage is higher than the other one, the high-voltage selecting circuit avoids the leakage current by means of an auxiliary PMOS transistor turning off the corresponding selecting PMOS transistor of the high-voltage selecting circuit. In this way, the high-voltage selecting circuit can correctly generate the output voltage according to the first input voltage and the second input voltage, and avoid the leakage current at the same time.

Abstract: A method and system reconstructs a contone image from a binary image by first tagging pixels to identify one of a multiplicity of image content types. The tag information and the pattern of bits surrounding the pixel to be converted to a contone value are used to reconstruct a contone image from a binary image. The pattern of bits in the neighborhood is used to generate a unique identifier. The unique identifier is used as the address for a lookup table with the contone value to be used wherein each lookup table corresponds to an image context type.
